Abstract
The die cushion device according to the present invention includes a first hydraulic cylinder and a second hydraulic cylinder that are independently and simultaneously controlled. When a cushion pad is pre-pressurized, pressure control is performed on the first hydraulic cylinder via a first hydraulic circuit so that a pressure in a lower chamber of the first hydraulic cylinder is pre-pressurized to a preset pressure, and position control is simultaneously performed on the second hydraulic cylinder via a second hydraulic circuit so that the cushion pad is held in the die cushion standby position. A force with which the first hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad upward is balanced with a force with which the second hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad downward (a force for holding the die cushion standby position).
